Lol. To be honest whoever you heard saying that probably meant to same thing as what your wife was saying.
It's that smutty British sense of humour.

funny thing I heard that from some of the guy's off the

the naval base back in 1989

I met some guy's from the HMS Arc Royal

they were in port  and we were sharing some "pint's" as you would say and we got to talking about the subtle changes in meaning's to thing's when you say thing's

in every day life like  soda pop, some call it just  pop here in the US, where you have  ginger pop !

so I heard him say "knock you up in the mornin"  to one of his mate's who was leaving the Bar I kind of looked at him funny, he told me what it meant.

ahh good time's

Haha, I think it's because people tend to dislike microsoft as a whole. They really are a hard company to like, Satan gets better press than them. If the 360 was made by any other company people would warm to it a lot more!

  This is about 90% right.  It is partially true the 360 catches some flack because of Microsoft dislike, but it is also the way Microsoft acts with the 360.

  I don't dislike Microsoft because I hate everything with Microsoft on the made by tag.  It is more or less that every time I think there is a product from them I kind of like they screw me.  I kind of liked Windows 7 until I found out they wanted 300 dollars for it (and the cheap version, the only one you can get in multi license packs, wouldn't have key features).  I kind of liked the 360 when I got it at launch until I needed Wifi (100 bucks) online play (50 bucks a year) a bigger hard drive since most of the 20GB is taken by default (100 plus)and rechargable batteries for the controllers (another 20 bucks).

 It's like when I just went to the Trump hotel in vegas and found out there would be an additional "resort fee" of 15 bucks per night per person required to stay on top of what they quoted as the room cost.  It isn't that I'm super mad they made the room 110 per night instead of 95 per night, I'd pay 110 for a 5 star hotel near the strip.  It's that they weren't up front about the value proposition and tried to tack on extras that should have been included in the base price (wifi, access to the pool and a bottle of water in the room, things you get for free at the 30 dollar residence inn, are what they say the 15 bucks per person resort fee provides).

   I've owned something like 14 different systems since the 80s (NES, Genesis, SNES, N64, PSX, PS2, PS3, 360, Xbox, Dreamcast, Game boy, DS, PSP, iphone) and none of them made me shell out cash for basic functionality after I bought the system except for the MS consoles.  Technically Sega had seganet for the dreamcast, but that included being your ISP in the fee.  If the 360's gold included an internet connection service in the cost I'd be fine with it since it's value added not just charging me for something that should be included.

 It's that nickle and dime mentality that I dislike.  I would rather just pay 100 bucks more up front then pay a little less then get hit with hundreds in add on fees some perpetually.  If Microsoft cut that out next time around I would give their console a chance again (I've owned both a Xbox and 360 though sold both) I just don't know if it's in their DNA to deal with customers straight up like Nintendo and Sony do (well for the most part).

  I think a lot of the 360 negativity is from former 360 owners who had one issue or another with their console.  At 35 million sold I'm pretty sure almost every gamer on here has either had a 360 or had a friend whose 360 they've used.  It's not some irrational hate based on no experience.  Look me up on windows live/xbox live, same user name (Impulsivity).  I have over a 10k Gamerscore from when I played so you can't say I didn't give it a chance.

Yeah dude, there always seems to be a catch with microsoft.   Very hard to like.  I actually did a poll a few weeks ago (  http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=101480  ).  Microsoft ranked pretty damn low.  



The dude abides

I dunno what's funnier, that this thread is a microcosm of what the OP's talking about or that libellule's argument boils down to "lots of people agree with me, so I must be right!"

"lots of people agree with me, so I must be right!"

keep your shit out of my mouth plz

When I said the "whole internet", I m referring to the main review websites.
Considering how the "whole internet" is OVER dominated by the american propaganda and has bashed the PS3 to hell (just check the rating of Uncharted1 compared to Halo3 ...), I do believe that, when the same internet people change their opinion then it means something has changed.

To put it clear : despite all anti PS3 biais, it is common knowledge that the more technically impressive games are on PS3.

(see my signature, even jesus kung fu magic say it !)

Seeing as you poorly tried to have a go at me for doing something similar (though that was because you made a mistake) I would say you need to be careful in case you get the "big word" you like so much.

come on !

It was easy to get what I meant in my previous post, very easy.

Also, at contrary to you, the "whole internet" are not negative word that you can associate someone with like, for example ... "hypocrite"

so YES, use big world with caution ...

@RAZurrection,

""""""""""""""""""""""""
1) 99% of all cross-platform games run better on 360 regardless of lead platform
2) Digital Foundrys analysis concludes the engine runs better on 360
3) Crytek's showing the 360 version to the PC media, which leads one to believe given the choice between the 360 and the PS3 version they show the PS3 media, the 360 version was better for showing off.
"""""""""""""""""""""""""

so that confirms what everybody is saying to you :
you know nothing but you like to make poor claim

Also, about the quote from Crytek and Uncharted2 :
Do you expect Crytek to say that Crisis2 will not be the best looking game ever considering Crisis1 was an overhyped game, with crappy story/settings/characters and basic gameplay that succeed to be highly hyped/rated only because ... it was the best looking game !!!

It's never too late for an answer.
It's always too early for a bad answer.

I was clear in what I said. People who have a ago at Selnor then go into PS threads which are doing the same thing and and never say anything there. Before having a go at him they should stamp it out in the Sony section.
You misread that to mean every single sony fan is a hypocrite.
Go read it again.

 

And do you not expect Crytek to say a sequel to the current best looking game which has had major improvement  will look even better than anything out there?



I direct you to any PS Move thread.

FULL of positivity, right? No trolling at ALL, right?

And I move you to any 360 thread.
The point is it's far worse on the MS threads.
But you can't see that as you like that.

it's bad pd. even I can see there are plenty of Microsoft thread's derailed pretty quick, but there is quite a few of them that with the tone of the thread that I think causes that to moreso than not happen because of the way the thread is design to stir up a response.

this thread no matter what would have gained quite a bit of responses because of it tone and subject matter. other than if it was not locked off right away.
